It can be sometimes dangerous and cumbersome to jailbreak, but several Cydia apps are definitely worth the hassle. In this post I will try to keep a list of trusted and working Cydia apps. I will try to add a small description, if the function is not obvious.

Have fun checking out my list after the break…

And here it comes:

AdBlocker: an ad blocker for safari and other apps

AirServer: an AirPlay target for streaming audio / video from a mac or other iOS device

Bluetooth Profile Selector: can configure, which BT profiles should be active and which not (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad)

BTstack Mouse: BLUETOOTH MOUSE on your iPad!!! perfect together with a BT keyboard or the keyboard dock (mostly iPad!?)

Chromizer: Some tweaks for iOS Chrome (e.g. full screen mode)

DashboardX: widget system for the home screen

DisplayOut: Springboard (= iPad Desktop) as well as ALL Apps can be shown via an iPod-to-VGA connector on an external monitor, no matter if these apps can do the trick on their own (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad)

Five Icon Switcher: 5 icons in the multitasking switcher (only for iOS4 and iPhone)(iPhone, iPod touch)

Gridlock: icons can be placed anywhere on the home screen grid

GuizmoDNS: 3G DNS settings for system preferences (manual settings for DNS on iOS)

HomeScreen Settings: Gets you a homescreen icon for every setting in your settings, with folder-like effect for options

>>> IntelliScreenX (6)<<<: TRUE successor of Intelliscreen, enables a plethora of functions on the lock screen, enables to check appointments, email, Twitter, Facebook, the weather and RSS feeds ON YOUR LOCKSCREEN; there is a new version for iOS 6.X

>>> Springtomize 2 <<<: The springboard customizing app to rule them all!! One neat app for so many functions. Has replaced “Five Icon Dock”, “Five Icon Switcher”, Old TV Tube and more for me and offers still many more functions I haven’t seen in other apps

TruPrint: Enables Printing with much more printers than AirPrint. Might not be supported on iOS6 anymore! Check before buying!
